Here's the deal....

I have a 160gb hard drive external that I needed to partition then do  
a secure erase.... not even 15 minutes into the erase, the warning  
window comes up saying that I disconnected the drive! aAAAH! I'm using  
a new (unibody) macbook with fresh install of 10.5.5 on it..... What  
the stink did I do wrong? here's the portion of the log I think is  
pertinent:
